Description

This has been seeded before 6 years ago but has long been dead. This is a better quality version anyway and i have upscaled the rip.Svend Karlsen, World’s Stongest Man 2001, reveals his training for the first time on DVD. In this DVD Svend reveals his strongman training program and how to achieve the unbelievable level of strength that is required to win the title of the Worlds Strongest Man!This is a very entertaining and informative DVD. Narrated and produced by Colin Bryce (those of you who have watched a lot of strongman will recognize this guy) this DVD is comprehensive and includes heaps of training footage. Essentially broken up into two major parts it showcases Svend and his big personality training in his own gym and then at a commercial gym. His own gym is something to behold. When he takes us in there the first thing he says is “Welcome to Valhallla!”. For those of you like me who just dream of having this type of place to train you will agree that this is a very apt comment, it really is heaven. He takes the viewer into a huge warehouse where he has every possible strongman and exercise equipment you could imagine. Add the fact that this is in the wilderness and it is heavily snowing outside it just gives that raw gritty feel that would just make you want to train the moment you stepped in. He then takes us through a multitude of exercises ranging from log lifts and atlas stones to some of his own ideas like the Karlsen press and clean. The DVD also gives a synopsis of each day of his training which is something to behold as he does a very high volume of training.The second part takes us to a commercial gym where he takes us through a predominately lower body training session. His front Squats and deadlift sessions are something to behold and the ease at which he begins to deadlift around the 300+kg mark is certainly motivating. Throughout it he introduces us to a few other gym goers and it all has a feel of a real little subculture. Included in the DVD is some footage of him competing and an interview with Svend by Colin Bryce talking about his supplement and diet routine.Overall this is a great DVD. I personally have watched this countless times and it never gets boring. With a DVD length of well over 1 hour this is one DVD that any strongman or budding strength athlete should purchase. It is an excellent training and motivational tool
